The Myth of Oedipus
The legend of Oedipus starts with the oracle at Delphi. It says that “the Delphic Oracle foretold that a man would kill his father and marry his mother.” When Oedipus fulfilled these prophesies, he got upset and ran away from home. He ran away from Corinth, from his people, from his city. He ran away from his fate, and he ran away from the truth.
To fulfill the prophecy, he had to leave his wife and children, but he also had to kill his father and marry his mother. He ran away from the truth, but he could not run away from the truth.
The myth of Oedipus tells us that we all have to face the truth, that we all have to make choices in life, and sometimes, some choices are not good or not right. We all have to choose:
– To have knowledge or to have ignorance.
– To be conscious or unconscious.
– To be conscious of something or to be unconscious of something.
Each choice is part of our life story.
